    Little dip in quality

    I think it's normal for a series that starts out as strong as Gilmore Girls to have a little dip in quality around episode three.

    Strong parts were definitely seeing the relationship between Rory and Richard starting to develop.

    The rest just really didn't do it for me. Not a fan of the harpist Drella so I'm glad they got rid of her. The wedding content was a bit boring too. And Lorelais over reaction to Rory and Richard is a bit eh.

    I think this is where they started to realise how great Kirk could be though! Even though he was called Mick a few episodes before when installing the internet lol.

    • Trivia
      "Lorelei the First", Richard's mom and Rory's great grandmother, is mentioned in this episode in past tense. However, she shows up in later episodes alive and well.
    • Goofs
      Lorelai and Rory are sitting at a table, with Rory looking at herself in a mirror, they talk about Rory's hair. Right after this, Rory asks, "Do you want something to drink?" and her mouth doesn't move at all.
